Comedy Trousers

There's really fuck all to write about at the moment as we're a couple of weeks away from any new releases and I can't be arsed to trawl through the back catalog and come up with something pithy. By way of recompense, here's rare live footage of Depeche Mode, featuring Dave Gahan in the world's tallest pair of trousers, covering Bryan Ferry covering the Everly Brother's "The Price Of Love" in Amsterdam in 1981, a performance that Haircut 100 might reject as a little twee, and one that makes much of debut album Speak & Spell sound like Minor Threat by comparison. Ace.
